Title: Uploading .rar file which created by me?
Post by: Weedb on January 14, 2013, 12:31 am
Hi,
I must upload some .avi file, but it's 700mb, so i had to compress it to 2 parts of .rar it to - 350mb each. Will there be any traces that it was uploaded from my PC? How can I get rid of all traces?

And another question please;
If I upload a pic to a SR listing (as a vendor) - which was taken with my camera - can it be tracked? or the SR system clears any details/traces of the pictures being uploaded to the sr system?

Thanks a lot everyone.

Anyone? Please??
Sorry for bumping, I just must upload it ASAP and being very paranoid to do something on my own without knowing if that could reveal my identity.
Please help

Yes if the file was created by you, you need to remove metadata. Especially smartphones can include gps location.
There are many tools to remove metadata, here's one : http://regex.info/exif.cgi
